We are building something – Erik ten Hag pleads for patience from Man Utd fans

Crystal Palace humiliated Manchester United with a blistering display at Selhurst Park that leaves Erik ten Hag’s position with the Red Devils on a knife edge.

The hosts started as the better side and dominated possession from kick off. Michael Olise then opened the scoring in the 12th minute, cutting inside Casemiro and slotting home from inside the box. From there Palace never looked back. Jean-Philippe Mateta continued his amazing home form by darting in behind and blasting a strike past Andre Onana as United’s defence fell apart repeatedly.

The second half brought more goals. From a short corner Adam Wharton picked out Joachim Andersen at the far post who turned the ball across to Tyrick Mitchell for a tap-in. Olise then scored his second, Palace’s fourth, after Casemiro – who had a night to forget – was bungled off the ball deep in his own half. Daniel Munoz squared a pass and Olise rocketed a strike from range past Onana again.

The timid manner of United’s defeat will only raise more questions over Ten Hag’s suitability as the new owners look to make changes in the summer.

Reaction from Jamie Carragher on Sky Sports: “In Eze and Olise, Crystal Palace have got two players that would walk into Manchester United’s team. Under Oliver Glasner, they have been brilliant. Manchester United never looked like scoring.”

FT Crystal Palace 4-0 Man Utd

Manchester United missed the chance to move into the European places today.

There’s a real chance that they can’t leap above Newcastle or Chelsea in the last three games meaning they would have to beat Manchester City in the FA Cup to be in Europe next season.

Crystal Palace 4-0 Man Utd

87 mins: Erik ten Hag looks thoughtful on the sidelines. He’ll have no words on how to explain such a terrible performance and it has been massively evident that the Red Devils miss Bruno Fernandes.

Ten Hag will be praying that the Portuguese is fit to start against Arsenal.

81 mins: Into the final 10 minutes now and this will feel like a lifetime for Manchester United. It’s been a shocking performance from the visitors.

Mason Mount goes off with Amad Diallo replacing him. Can he have an impact and maybe score a consolation goal?
